For the members of OUR forum that belong to OR were banished from the "1911 Addicts", do you think that we are considered out of control Renegades that are not PC enough to deal with. I'm wondering why more of the "Old Guard" haven't joined us here. At least at 1911 Fanatics you can speak your mind without being chastised. Or do you think they don't even know about this place. I miss some of the good old boys there. Oh well, their loss. Thoughts?

I quit going on the site simply because I got tired of the same people insulting someone's intelligence , calling them names and hiding behind the anonymity of the internet , thinking their opinion was the only one that mattered or could possibly be correct . It just wasn't enjoyable anymore .

Same here. Though I'm still a member in good standing, I haven't checked in over there for quite a while. I got tired of the hypocrisy of some of the supposed leading members of that forum whose posts and attitudes indicate, at least to me, that the forum would be somewhat less without them New members were talked down to, etc.

Obviously, the classifieds are a big draw over there. It'd be nice if some of the manufacturers and smiths would drop in and post here once in a while, also.

I wondered how long it would take to ask.
I got banned at addicts & then when I reported it to 1911forums.com & Coltforums.com. I was attacked by half of the members there for reporting the banning. o_O

Reported & then banned by American Gun owners it was a real eye opener for me **** um!!!.
Some of you know the BS going on at the other forums & members reporting on fellow members, just like good little Comrades :eek: .

Many more than you know have already joined fanatics way back & already know about it now. Why they chose to stay with the Canook Commies who knows? & who cares?
I like it here where we can speak without a Dr Awkward popping up spouting Commie BS we can be free thinking Americans for once in a nitemare.

I still belong to Addicts and participate from time to time. Lots of "new blood" over there and some are good, many are not. Seems like the larger the membership gets, the more stupidity exposes itself from the specialized keyboard comrades. I agree that the classifieds probably attract most folks but that has just led to a sudden influx of scammers and thieves. Still many good members, quality posts and pictures. As previously stated it would be nice if some of the Pro's would stop in here from time to time...

Yeah they know about this place as it was a big topic of discussion when Fanatics started up. I joined here shortly after the launch but there was not much traffic so I still ended up browsing Addicts for the most part. I left on my own accord as I just got tired of their crap and Dr Awkward is the perfect example of the change over there.
If you have a differing opinion than mine, good for you, at least your using your brain but if you don't like mine and call me names or a racist or anything else as your only argument then I have no use for you and will not continue to put up with your nonsense and abusive ways!

I'm not really sure why I got banned froe the Addicts forum. The cowards won't tell you. Just some catchall phrase like suggesting a violent act. The only thing I can think of is way back I wrote: "It's time to get out the ropes". What the hell is wrong with that? Is it not the truth? Oh wait, the truth doesn't matter anymore. Censorship is the "New Normal". And I Hate that phrase. Now I'm a Hater too. So now I'm happy. KAGA!

For what it's worth .........I bounce back and forth between three of the 1911 forums..........I don't comment alot but read all three regularly. Some members of both the others have a "Holier than thou" personality but......that's their problem not mine. I enjoy different points of view but, like Babboonbobo said they have a tendency to call people names and can't back up their arguments with facts. I also agree with others about saying what you feel without negative ramifications.........as always....JMHO

TR, about the emoji's there here. Someone else can help with that. Just for your info, only 1 King of the hill here. The Administrator and owner, Blackbeard. The boss and judge. A very cool and generous man. The fee(if you call it that) to be a full blow family member and keep the site maintained is only $10. And you won't be kicked out for being real. A bargain. Is this a sales pitch? Hell yes. Come on in.

No notice or no reply. Figures. You must be labeled an Extremist. Welcome to the club. Along with 70 million other true Americans.

The only thing I miss is the Info I did not write down from the PMs I got over the years.

Those bastards still owe me for the $25.00 I wasted on the membership over at addicts. LMAO o_O

@Babboonbobo,i:pt looks like you are still good favor over there. See how long it takes till ya step over the line. Not trying to get you in trouble or anything like that. I checked my status and banned for incitement to violence still. I love it. Does this mean I get a medal?:D
I think they need to set up a Thunderdome over at addicts . People can get together , settle their differences . Too many people throwing insults hiding on the internet like cowards . It seemed like Addicts got hijacked by asshats . I'm done over there .

I'm still on Addicts and the main TOOOS (1911forum -- even though I've had run-ins with a certain Mod). The way I look at things is, I don't give a {expletive}... Just stay out of my face, and leave me the {expletive} alone, and we'll get along fine.

I never did nothing to you, so don't do nothing to me. It's that simple....
